medicine | in melanoma, enzyme expression is restricted to the melanoma cells within the invading front. Enzyme is detected in melanoma cells and in peritumoral stromal fibroblasts, but absent in fibroblasts distal to the tumor site. In melanoma cell lines, enzyme is expressed in varying amounts in all cell lines studied. Downregulation of enzyme expression upon culture of cells within 3-dimensional latticies of fibrillar type I collagen, but not in the polysaccharide alginate | Homo sapiens |
